I am currently evaluating MyEclipse for use within our organization and am having some difficulty configuring deployment and debugging with OC4J. I have read many posts on these issuses and have become somewhat confused by the seemingly confilicting information.
The following post suggests that it is possible to do exploded deployments and debugging.
http://www.myeclipseide.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=159
While this post suggests that he was able to configure hot swapping within an OC4J containter… (which leads me to beleive he is also debugging?)
http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-635-highlight-oracle.html

Numerous other posts mention that debugging is not possible with OC4J but I find this hard to beleive, perhaps this refers to JSP debugging only? Something about JSR-045 maybe…

Also, JDeveloper does allow full debugging including hot swapping and stepping through the actual JSP file and not just the generated class file. The posts mentioned above are over a year old, maybe there have been new developments regarding OC4J integration with MyEclipse that have not been published yet?

Thus far I have been able to successfully deploy an Ear file to my OC4J 9.0.4 containter and run the application. I have not however been able to debug any code… JSP, servlet, or otherwise. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

As far as JSP debugging is concerned, I believe this thread covers it:

As far as normal debugging is concerned (code, servlets, etc.):
Make sure you are running the app server from MyEclipse and that you have it set to run in debug mode, also make sure you are using JDK 1.4+ to run Eclipse AND OC4J, preferablly the same JDK to run both.
